​Antonio buzzing for West Ham return

West Ham United striker Michail Antonio is delighted to get close to full fitness.

The forward has been out for several months since suffering a hamstring problem in the Carabao Cup against Newport County in August.

But now he is back training and is hoping that he can make himself available for selection soon enough.

"I'm buzzing to be back out there training and hopefully I can get back in and help the boys move up the league," he explained to the West Ham United official website

"It has been very frustrating, especially as I was getting my form as I got injured, so hopefully I can pick up where I left off.

"Injuries are part of the game, they're going to happen - it's just how you deal with them and how you come back."
